Partying with the wife. Our Horde guild requires successful Heroic Runs, three of them, in three different dungeon areas, in order to qualify to go to Karazhan with them. By then you’ve probably accumulated at least 3 of your Dungeon 3 pieces. (I have, and a couple epics in addition.) Next week is the guild’s Karazhan week, neither Msaker nor Droonda qualify. Seems Msaker, in his 2nd ever Heroic, failed to get the final boss in the Slave Pens down. 2 of 3 bosses wasn’t enough. So today we took a break and played our Alliance Druids. Out in Feralas, along the coast, killing Elementals and zapping Giants. Itarilde is also level 46 now.

The Ugly:

Heroics. My trip into The Mechanar was successful, all bosses killed (though we skipped the optional fire lady). My trip into The Slavepens was “incomplete”, being only 2 of the 3 and not the end boss. Trash hits hard. Single target tanking, ala Molten Core, is easy mode.

The Bad:

Well, on me it looks good, and I’m glad it comes with a smile. The Headless Horseman’s Helm. (And the +60AP epic ring he drops as well.)

In Blackhoof’s session (five runs) he scored two epic rings.

In Msaker’s two sessions (10 runs) he scored the helm and one ring.

It’s kind of nice being able to assemble some epics in my DPS gear (when I’m otherwise only instancing as Protection).
